TODAY'S DISCUSSION

3. Contd...
When planning to publish your findings in a
journal to reach out to a larger peer group or
scientific community, there are a few things to
consider in addition to the primary research
effort.
Getting one's research published in a
reputable journal also necessitates meeting
specific editorial requirements
INTRODUCTION

4. Journal editors strive to strike a balance
between a publication's novelty and
relevance and the expectations of its
scientific audience. Published articles must
have high-quality.
Science writing and manuscript editing in a
reader-friendly style. Without a thorough
review of the content, an editor may reject a
publication due to bad language or
organization.

6. Reviewers frequently comment that the
document was not thoroughly vetted in-house
before submission or was lengthy and
disorganized.
Peer reviewers are subject specialists from
the scientific community you're hoping to
reach, and they're more likely to understand
the article's substance.

7. On the other hand, a poorly constructed
document can be highly irritating and time-
consuming for reviewers and is more likely to
be dismissed.
When it comes to manuscript editing work
for publication, there are three essential
factors to consider.
Contd...

8. If you need your manuscript to be accepted
by a journal, make sure it has some novel
insights/ideas or a new piece of evidence that
will pique the scientific community's attention.
The document must have a defined goal
expressed in the introduction.
MANUSCRIPT EDITING A
CONTENT

9. reporting of the actions in well-delineated
sections, and the inferences or conclusions
drawn as a result of those activities with
sufficient references at the end.
While the author can complete the first
component, the two crucial aspects should be
delegated to a competent language editor.
Contd...

10. Line editing focuses on the publication's
language and is particularly difficult for
authors because it is easy to overlook how
phrases sound to the reader.
This is best accomplished by a third-party
language editor who is unattached to your
text and can assess your writing style
objectively.
EDITING A LINE

11. Language editors specialize in scientific editing, guaranteeing that the final
language is clear, concise, and straightforward.

12. This final editing step employs a keen eye for
detail, scrutinizing grammar, spelling,
punctuation, and syntax for consistency.
It's critical to double-check formulas,
annotations, and characters in scientific
papers.
COPYEDITING:

13. Again, having a language editor look into
these issues is preferable to having an author
look into them. A well-edited publication
improves the reading experience and allows
the research and findings to be presented
more communicatively.
A decent research paper can thus be
elevated to a desirable publication for the
scientific community with the help of a
competent language editor.

14. THE EDITOR'S PERSPECTIVE
When it reaches the editor, your work may be
among a long line of other hopefuls.
The editor may have a set of 'desk rejection'
criteria to follow; editors have the authority to
reject up to 50% of submissions without
sending them out for peer review.
Contd...

15. Your contribution may be rejected on the spot if your language is poor and
manuscript editing quality is less.
Editors are concerned with a submission's overall quality: bad language implies –
correctly or incorrectly – that the science is equally shoddy, and this raises a red
signal for the editor.
If your submission is full of errors, it will not go to the next step because they have
so many other suggestions to deal with.

16. WHAT YOUR READERS ARE
LOOKING FOR
The ultimate purpose of submission is to get your
research into the hands of your readers; this is
something to consider before submitting.
So, what precisely do they want to see? Would they
be able to comprehend what you've written? Would
they be satisfied if the language was inadequate? If
the battle for publishing is challenging, readership is
even more challenging.
Contd...

17. Your readers have millions of papers to
select from; if your paper isn't effectively
written and edited
they won't know if it's relevant or
enjoyable to read, which could result in
fewer downloads and citations.
One method to avoid this is to proofread
and modify your manuscript editing
before submitting it.

18. Although it is not the reviewer's responsibility
to copy edit your paper, they may become
distracted enough to begin editing your
wording if they see enough errors.
Peer review is essential in ensuring that
scientific papers are of high quality
WHAT THE REVIEWER
NOTICES

19. Because reviewers are scarce and heavy,
rectifying linguistic errors aggravates them.
They will have a wrong opinion of your paper
if it contains types, grammatical errors, or
misused punctuation, and they will be less
likely to recommend it for publication.

20. Few basic things to avoid falling into the poor language trap. First and
foremost, use spellcheck. It may seem obvious, yet a startling number of
manuscripts contain errors that a word processor could quickly and
automatically detect.
After you've finished writing your manuscript, then manuscript editing it, have
it read by a native English speaker. Better still, hire a professional language
editor to check over your book; they'll know exactly what to look for and can
help you improve it.
